Dear sir,

I am aware of the project of the Atlanta Bonsai
society to bring a 100-year old Pinus pentaphylla in its con-
tainer and soil from Japan and that the City of Atlanta as well
as our Chief Horticulturist, Mr.B.Oortman, will be responsible
for the USDA post-entry requirements.

Sincerely yours,



(Signed) Mr.Ivan Allen, Mayor of Atlanta
